What is the impact of increasing maxPDU size?

Hi

What is the impact on performance when increasing maxPDUsize from the
default 2,000,000 to 20,000,000?

 I am using ApacheDs 1.5.5.

It all depends on the size of data you are transferring.

If your entries contain only small data (ie, no JpegPhoto, for 
instance), the impact is null.

This parameter is just used to protect the server against OOM in case 
huge block of data are transferred.

We are working on implementing another way to deal with huge data, btw, 
using streamed attributes (ie bug values will be temporarily stored on 
disk instead of being loaded in memory entirely, during the 
request/response processing).
